Got ’em!

Poland 2011. I’d had this colorful skirt for at least a year before I left for Europe, but I’d never worn it because it seemed too daring. But suddenly it matched all of my shirts and it was super easy to fit in a suitcase. Instant hit!

Bundle 2

Dancing bears, painted wings, things I almost remember…

Mission accomplished!

(a small interjection: USA USA USA! So excited for tomorrow’s game!!)

A better view of the cathedral. Maybe you can see the coloring that betrays the war damage?

Io and I are pretentious

And this girl! We met at a Covenant Mass, a few days later bought John Mayer tickets together out of convenience more than anything else, six months later went to work at the Pines together, and in 5 months we’ll be roommates!

In these images, Mary is surrounded by the apostles and Christ is generally seen in the heavens, accompanied by a child representing Mary’s soul.

The kneelers were PADDED. Take note, other churches of Europe.

I wish I had a better picture to substantiate my claim. Any Pennsylvanians want to weigh in?? The houses really do look strikingly similar!

Franziskanerkirche

See it? :)

Bundle 1

Here’s a view from Marienplatz!

The scarves, when folded into squares the size of the bundles, didn’t add much bulk to the stack

In this picture, I’m not actually throwing a coin… I used up the coin for the first picture, which didn’t come out very well. And no way was I throwing away another .01 Euros!

I chose sweaters of various colors, cuts, and knits to create the most flexibility during fall, winter, and spring. Totally foreign for this Texas girl!

I already miss these girls!

I was convinced that this was the Pantheon, but that is completely and totally incorrect. How embarrassing, hopefully Plan II will take me back in August

Study abroad, past and present

Check out all those sistas!

Jesuitenkirche

You may know me, Mike, and John as the smash hit indie folk band 3 Birds & Bangs. Be on the lookout for our forthcoming album.

You can kind of tell that these girls were pulling little sailboats in the Bächler…

The Blessed Mother, my LG’s Pilgrim MTA, and some Lourdes water from Daniel :)
